Save time, empower your teams and effectively upgrade your processes with access to this practical Kubernetes Toolkit and guide. Address common challenges with best-practice templates, step-by-step work plans and maturity diagnostics for any Kubernetes related project.
Download the Toolkit and in Three Steps you will be guided from idea to implementation results.
The Toolkit contains the following practical and powerful enablers with new and updated Kubernetes specific requirements:
STEP 1: Get your bearings
Start with...
- The latest quick edition of the Kubernetes Self Assessment book in PDF containing 49 requirements to perform a quickscan, get an overview and share with stakeholders.
Organized in a data driven improvement cycle RDMAICS (Recognize, Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control and Sustain), check the…
- Example pre-filled Self-Assessment Excel Dashboard to get familiar with results generation
Then find your goals...
STEP 2: Set concrete goals, tasks, dates and numbers you can track
Featuring 993 new and updated case-based questions, organized into seven core areas of process design, this Self-Assessment will help you identify areas in which Kubernetes improvements can be made.
Examples; 10 of the 993 standard requirements:
- Do you have a simple automated way to manage security across multiple teams, applications, and stakeholders in an environment that still requires separation of duties?
- Are you able to keep up with upgrades in upstream Kubernetes or manage the varying release and upgrade schedules of different Kubernetes services providers?
- How does the process of moving the infrastructure to the cloud and starting to deploy things like Spark more, more readily, and Kubernetes more readily?
- How do you know whether the convenient base images, downloaded by your developers, contain malware, vulnerabilities, or protected intellectual property?
- Are you and your colleagues able to customize security dashboards to reduce the noise and clearly present the most relevant information?
- What is the motivation for wanting to have a homegrown serverless on top of Kubernetes platform if its so cheap to use hosted services?
- What are challenges, so you can plan ahead, support your organizations desire for data, and even make use of it in your own planning?
- Is the new licensing model only supported on Kubernetes based container management systems or any container runtime system/method?
- What are the long term impacts that Kubernetes is going to have and what are the business models that people are going to build?
- Do you create, control and manage storage volumes in your storage platform when Kubernetes stateful applications are deployed?
Complete the self assessment, on your own or with a team in a workshop setting. Use the workbook together with the self assessment requirements spreadsheet:
- The workbook is the latest in-depth complete edition of the Kubernetes book in PDF containing 993 requirements, which criteria correspond to the criteria in...
Your Kubernetes self-assessment dashboard which gives you your dynamically prioritized projects-ready tool and shows your organization exactly what to do next:
- The Self-Assessment Excel Dashboard; with the Kubernetes Self-Assessment and Scorecard you will develop a clear picture of which Kubernetes areas need attention, which requirements you should focus on and who will be responsible for them:
- Shows your organization instant insight in areas for improvement: Auto generates reports, radar chart for maturity assessment, insights per process and participant and bespoke, ready to use, RACI Matrix
- Gives you a professional Dashboard to guide and perform a thorough Kubernetes Self-Assessment
- Is secure: Ensures offline data protection of your Self-Assessment results
- Dynamically prioritized projects-ready RACI Matrix shows your organization exactly what to do next:
STEP 3: Implement, Track, follow up and revise strategy
The outcomes of STEP 2, the self assessment, are the inputs for STEP 3; Start and manage Kubernetes projects with the 62 implementation resources:
- 62 step-by-step Kubernetes Project Management Form Templates covering over 1500 Kubernetes project requirements and success criteria:
Examples; 10 of the check box criteria:
- Closing Process Group: Just how important is your work to the overall success of the Kubernetes project?
- Procurement Audit: Does the contract meet criteria of completeness and consistency?
- Quality Metrics: How do you know if everyone is trying to improve the right things?
- Risk Management Plan: Is the number of people on the Kubernetes project team adequate to do the job?
- Project Portfolio management: Why would the Governance Board want to know the status of the resource portfolio?
- Quality Audit: How does your organization know that its staff entrance standards are appropriately effective and constructive and being implemented consistently?
- Procurement Audit: Is a physical inventory taken periodically to verify fixed asset records?
- Initiating Process Group: During which stage of Risk planning are modeling techniques used to determine overall effects of risks on Kubernetes project objectives for high probability, high impact risks?
- Procurement Management Plan: Are Kubernetes project team roles and responsibilities identified and documented?
- Human Resource Management Plan: Is there a set of procedures to capture, analyze and act on quality metrics?

Results
With this Three Step process you will have all the tools you need for any Kubernetes project with this in-depth Kubernetes Toolkit.
In using the Toolkit you will be better able to:
- Diagnose Kubernetes projects, initiatives, organizations, businesses and processes using accepted diagnostic standards and practices
- Implement evidence-based best practice strategies aligned with overall goals
- Integrate recent advances in Kubernetes and put process design strategies into practice according to best practice guidelines
Defining, designing, creating, and implementing a process to solve a business challenge or meet a business objective is the most valuable role; In EVERY company, organization and department.
Unless you are talking a one-time, single-use project within a business, there should be a process. Whether that process is managed and implemented by humans, AI, or a combination of the two, it needs to be designed by someone with a complex enough perspective to ask the right questions. Someone capable of asking the right questions and step back and say, 'What are we really trying to accomplish here? And is there a different way to look at it?'
This Toolkit empowers people to do just that - whether their title is entrepreneur, manager, consultant, (Vice-)President, CxO etc... - they are the people who rule the future. They are the person who asks the right questions to make Kubernetes investments work better.
This Kubernetes All-Inclusive Toolkit enables You to be that person.
